Does anybody know how to crack or possibly change something in the registry to be able to e-file more than 5 returns? It has to be in the registry as if I install this on a another computer, it allows me to do 5 more. Any input is highly appreciated.

I get a bluescreen at the final part of install on windows 7 home premium SP1 64bit -- not sure wtf.
On another note:
The free state(s) things has worked for me every year for 7 years so thats fine, but this doesn't seem working on Win7 64bit although someone here claimed it worked, I see more comments that say it does not. Anyone have a working 64bit copy/link?

For anyone that has trouble running certain programs on Win 7 x64 bit...this is not going to go away for numerous various reasons...mostly security/driver signing issues.

Grab VMWARE and a copy of Win 7 32bit or Windows XP 32bit, get it up and running, create some snapshots of the VM, back it all up then use that whenever you have a need for these types of programs and situations.

I do this all the time. Read and learn how to use snapshots properly and you can literally have dozens of configurations without the HD space loss. Well worth it.

hey terribleperson. I found a solution to get multi-state. I'm using win7 and in the C:\Users\...\AppData\Roaming\Intuit\TurboTax\TY11 folder is an xml file. Rename it, restart TT and install another state. It looked like it was going to try to charge for it but it just downloaded no problem. Both states show up and you can toggle between them.

I didn't do anything special, just downloaded and installed. No blue screen, no warnings about unsigned files, or any of the problems others have experienced in this forum. Also forgot to mention i'm on sp1 in my previous post, if that makes a difference. Win 7 Enterprise sp1 64bit.

ajmi982: The steps you outlined to get a 2nd State worked in terms of downloading...however, when I went to do the State return it takes you to a screen to pay for it. Anyway around that? Thanks in advance.

I'm running Win7 64bit, TT 2011 Deluxe edition, not the home and business, but this still might help some people...

Go to [HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareIntuitTY11]
Some say delete the entire Intuit folder, I only deleted the TY11 part. Re-open TT, click start for the new state. It hesitated the first time, so I clicked edit for the first state, then clicked back to the previous screen and tried it again, worked fine after that. I used this after I had already done my federal and one state.
Someone else said to go to "C:ProgramDataIntuitTurboTaxTY11", there are 3 files in there, a *.ini and 2 *.xml (Entitlement_TTWin.xml and Price_S2011US1040PER.xml). Just delete the 2 *.xml files and restart TT. I didn't try that one, found it after I fixed mine, but a few other people said it worked great for them.
